Chapter 209 Complaining to each other

After Uncle Lu left, everyone in the second branch of the Lu family, except for Old Man Lu, felt relieved. The main reason was that Yan Ping had put too much pressure on everyone before.

It wasn't that she had a lot of problems and was difficult to get along with. She didn't. It was just that she had a sense of superiority, as if "a great leader is visiting the countryside, and coming to your house for dinner is to give your family face." Even the children could clearly sense that something was wrong.

When she left, didn't everyone feel relieved?

The first branch was not so happy.

Lu Changshou was taken away by his grandfather. Although it made Lu Shaocai and his wife feel that their father had not completely given up on the first wife and still cared about them, they had some hope in their hearts. But when they thought about the eldest son Yan Ping and his family living there, Hu Xiaole enjoying the treatment of a grandson, Yan Xin and Yan Bin enjoying the care of Uncle Lu, and they were the only ones being rejected, they could not help but feel unbalanced and resentful.

Zhao Meifeng was irritated. She wondered why Yan Ping followed her father-in-law to eat and drink delicious food, and her nephews and nieces were also taken care of, while she, a proper daughter-in-law, had to feed pigs in the countryside?

It was smelly all day long. Did she like it?

She was 80% dissatisfied, and Lu Changfu was 160% dissatisfied.

Hu Xiaole's surname is not Lu, but he lives in a small building like his grandfather's grandson. Changshou didn't want to go but was taken to the capital, and no one cared when he wanted to go.

This time when his grandfather came back, he also saw clearly that his grandfather really disliked him. He almost never looked at him straight in the eye, and even if he did, his eyes were cold and judged.

He decided to throw in the towel. Anyway, his grandfather and his parents had given up on him, so why should he go to work to earn money to support the family?

He lay on the kang and refused to get up to work. After

Zhao Meifeng fed the pigs, he found that one pig was lying down and didn't like to eat. It was sick, so he ran home to find his son to check on it.

Although Zhao Meifeng was angry, jealous of Yan Ping, and didn't want to go to work, the sense of responsibility engraved in her female genes made her unable to ignore the pigs she raised.

This was the task assigned to her by the entire brigade. She was paid ten work points a day. If she failed to feed the pigs well or fed one to death, it would be a big responsibility.

"Changfu, there's a pig that won't eat. Go check it out."

Lu Changfu turned over and ignored her.

Zhao Meifeng: "Oh, don't be angry with Grandpa. It's good that he can take Changshou with him. When Changshou becomes successful in the future, will he forget you, his big brother? He and you have a good relationship."

Lu Changfu said nothing, as stiff as a dead body.

Zhao Meifeng coaxed her eldest son for a long time, but when she saw that he refused to move, she became anxious and started crying, "What do you want? Your grandfather took your brother away, and you don't blame your grandfather or your brother? You said that they are gone, and you lie at home motionless, and they don't know or care, aren't you acting like a parent?"

Lu Changfu still didn't move.

Zhao Meifeng: "Changfu, you said that the pig doesn't eat, is it sick? If it dies, won't the team blame me? What if I have to pay for it?"

Lu Changfu was indifferent.

Zhao Meifeng saw that he was not interested, and had no choice but to ride his bike to the commune to find a veterinarian to check it out.

At this time, the wheat harvest was over, and the members were busy ploughing, watering, and planting corn. The branch secretary and the team leader rode their bikes to patrol every day.

The branch secretary went to the pig farm every day, three times a day, morning and noon.

He saw the pig lying there sickly, but he didn't see Lu Changfu and Zhao Meifeng, and he immediately got angry.

He rode his bike to Lu Shaocai's house like a gust of wind.

Lu Shaocai was not at home. He went to work because Lu Dabo specifically told the team to supervise Lu Shaocai to go to work. If he didn't go to work, he would not be given food at the end of the year. No matter whether it was per capita or work-based rations, he would not be given a single grain. So he went to work with Yan Bin in a lazy manner.

But Lu Changfu was lying at home.

The secretary suppressed his anger and was afraid of wrongly accusing Lu Changfu, so he reached out and touched his head, but he didn't have a fever or anything.

Lu Changfu thought it was Zhao Meifeng or Lu Shaocai who touched him, and said unhappily: "What are you doing? I told you not to work anymore, I'll starve to death!"

Good guy!

I gave you face, right?

The branch secretary slapped him on the head and said, "You idiot, the pigs on the farm are sick and you didn't go to see them. You're just lying there at home and acting like a jerk in front of me."

He got angry and cursed, "Okay, you're just going to give up and not go to work, right? Your aunt and uncle are very meddlesome people. They won't pay any attention to anyone who tries to get them a backdoor, but they arranged a job as a farmer on a farm for your mother and a job as a veterinarian for you. But not only don't you appreciate it, you even want to slap them in the face, right? Don't embarrass me. You'd better hang yourself in a deserted place as soon as possible."

Lu Changfu moved on the kang, obviously feeling guilty and uneasy. The secretary scolded

again: "You want to go to the capital to serve as a soldier? Don't you think you are worthy? In our whole village and commune, only your third uncle has made a name for himself. Do you think you are more impressive than your third uncle?" Lu Changfu said angrily: "No, I don't think so." The secretary said: "Look at you, you can't even read the characters of a third-grade primary school student. It's hard for you to learn veterinary medicine. And you are still a soldier. You were kicked back after two days. Isn't it embarrassing for your grandfather and your third uncle? Changshou is at least young. You can catch up if you study for two years. , can you? If you want to gamble, you can go to your grandfather to gamble. What's wrong with your family delaying the brigade's pigs? Do you think the brigade owes you? You are so hypocritical, you are sick! " Lin Shu was making kimchi and pickled cucumbers at home. When she heard the voice of the secretary next door, she stepped on the stones at the base of the wall and lay on the wall to greet him, "Uncle, what's the matter?" The secretary heard Lin Shu's voice and hurriedly said, "A pig in the farm is not feeling well. I came to ask Changfu to check it out." Hearing Lin Shu's voice, Lu Changfu jumped to the ground. The third aunt was too handsome. He was not exaggerating. In his heart, she was just like the gods and monsters in operas, movies, and comic books. He subconsciously didn't want the beautiful and cultured third aunt to look down on him. Lin Shu smiled and said, "I heard that Changfu is now very good at treating livestock. He can just go and take care of it." Lu Changfu didn't wait for the secretary to stop him, and went to the pig farm. The secretary came over to talk to Lin Shu, Granny Fang and others, and then rode his bike to the pig farm. Granny Fang is old and shrewd, what else does she not know? She sighed, "This person is kind-hearted, but he is also naturally partial. There is no parent in the world who can treat their children equally. However, parents should try their best to treat their children equally, so that their children will have fewer fights."

That’s what she and the old man did at first, so the three sons and two daughters, although each may have their own little calculations, there are no major conflicts between the brothers.

Lin Shu also agrees with this view. After all, in the Lu family, even if the parents-in-law seem to favor Tiantian and Panpan, they are still the two young ones, and Lu Shaotang makes a lot of money. If it’s really public money or things, all the children in the family are the same, not just the same in each room, but also the same for boys and girls.

She thought that if she was in the position of Uncle Lu, she would not send Lu Shaocai back to his hometown casually if he was not motivated. Send him

back to his hometown because he is not talented? Then he is even more untalented?

I have power and status, can't I deal with a bad son?

I let the soldiers take him to military training every day, let him crawl and fight, and train him to death!

I let him go to the suburban brigade to work in the fields, and train him to death!

If he dares to go out and cause trouble, or make friends with bad people, I will lock him up and beat him three times a day. Who

are you afraid of laughing at when you educate your own son?

Lu Changfu and his friends are actually not well educated. It can be seen that they didn't go to school and study hard when they were in the capital, and their families didn't care about them.

This clearly means that they don't care, they are too lazy to beat him, and let him do whatever he wants.

Of course, Lin Shu won't tell her father-in-law, because it will make her father-in-law uncomfortable. After all, it's not good to talk about her uncle behind his back.

Panpan and Tiantian listened to what Lin Shu and her great-grandmother were saying, and turned to Sister Lin and said, "Aunt, if Hou Wei doesn't study hard and doesn't do things right, I'll beat him up for you."

Sister Lin smiled and said, "Okay!"

Hou Wei's eyes widened, and he looked at them in horror, "What am I not doing right? I'm being so good every day."

Panpan immediately patted his head and generously gave him a piece of candy.

He felt that Pan Lili was too pitiful. Yan Xin was so good to Hu Xiaole, but not to his own daughter. Oh, the child was too pitiful. He should be nicer to Hou Wei.

Hou Wei took a piece of candy and ate it happily.

Zhao Meifeng didn't find a veterinarian, so she hurried home to check. She found that her son had gone to work, so she ran to the pig farm.

At this time, Lu Changfu had already isolated the pig, raising and observing it separately to prevent swine fever.

Seeing that he was working hard, Zhao Meifeng hugged him excitedly, "Changfu, you can't ignore your parents."

The voice of the branch secretary rang out at the door of the pig farm, "What's the matter, do you look down on the brigade farm? We have already discussed that we will expand this year and strive to raise 100 pigs. Your third aunt has discussed with the technical team and will continue to help us get fertilizer to increase the yield per mu, so that they can save more coarse grain for pig feed."

He snorted, "You don't know how to raise these 40 pigs, and you still want to go to the capital to serve as a soldier. You really don't know how much you weigh. Even soldiers have a cook team and a breeder, and they have to raise pigs too!"

After that, he left angrily.

The mother and son didn't dare to say anything anymore.

Zhao Meifeng: "Changfu, we can't take it out on pigs if we are not happy with your grandfather, right?"

Lu Changfu: "Yes. I am a pig breeder."

Zhao Meifeng: "You don't have to be embarrassed. Didn't you see how angry your step-grandmother was? Her son is not as promising as your uncle. When your grandfather retired, he was sent to the army. It's useless to promote him. He has to rely on himself. Maybe he will have to ask your uncle for help. Your uncle is a lonely person. He won't take care of him. Let them get angry and frustrated."

Thinking of this, Lu Changfu was also happy.

Maybe Changshou will be successful. Then the uncle will help Changshou instead of Lu Shaoyu.

That's how he feels.

It was getting late, Zhao Meifeng had to go back to cook.

Lu Changfu: "Why do we care about Yan Bin's meals?"

Zhao Meifeng: "He gets one pound of grain coupons and two cents of vegetable money a day, why don't we care? Changfu, don't even think about punishing him, my Changshou is still in the hands of your step-grandmother, if you punish Yan Bin, she will harm my Changshou, it's not fair."

Lu Changfu agreed with frustration.

At noon, they went home to eat, Lu Changfu didn't see Yan Bin, and habitually walked to the west wall to look at the west yard.

Lin Shu was basically busy in the yard during the day, and he could see that beautiful figure.

Although she was his third aunt, he felt that it was not against the law for him to take a peek.

If there was a beautiful woman in the yard next door, who wouldn't peek?

Just then, she saw Yan Bin go to the west courtyard.

Yan Bin was greeting Lin Shu, "Sister-in-law."

Lin Shu had already prepared the meal and was mixing cold vegetables under the building, "What do you want?"

Yan Bin smiled at her, and his heartbeat accelerated when he saw her white face flushed by her busy schedule. He couldn't believe there was such a beautiful person in the countryside, and he immediately stuttered when he spoke, "Sister-in-law, can I get a meal ticket and money to eat here?"

Yan Ping felt embarrassed because of Yan Xin's exposure, and she didn't have the face to ask Lin Shu to let Yan Bin eat and live here, but Yan Bin didn't care.

Lin Shu smiled, her attitude was extremely friendly and cordial, "Yan Bin, we also want you to eat here, but, after all, you are a relative of my aunt's wife, and a legitimate relative of the first wife. If you leave the first wife alone in my family, people will gossip, and it will be bad for your aunt and uncle."

She took an enamel bowl, filled it with a large bowl of tiger vegetables, and handed it to Yan Bin, "Now every household has vegetables in the vegetable garden, and we all eat the same. My family eats coarse grains, and my sister-in-law's family has fine noodles."

She sent Yan Bin away with a few words.

Nonsense, Yan Ping and the others came with Uncle Lu, and she had to entertain them. Now that they are gone, she still entertains Yan Bin?

Do you think she is popular?

If Uncle Lu came by himself, she would be happy to entertain him in any way, but since Yan Ping and Yan Xin were both annoying, she didn't want to entertain him.

Yan Bin came with high hopes but left with disappointment.

Lu Changfu was happy!

Seeing Yan Bin coming back, he couldn't help but sneer, "Hey, you idiot want to eat swan meat! Don't you even consider whether you deserve it!"

Yan Bin's face changed, "Lu Changfu, what are you talking about?"

Lu Changfu turned his head, ignored him, and went into the house.

Yan Bin was not angry, and took the bowl of food and ate it himself.

He had long discovered that although Zhao Meifeng had been a nanny before, her cooking was very average.

Yan Bin had been eating Lin Shu's cooking for the past few days, and his appetite had become very picky. Now he couldn't even swallow the food cooked by Zhao Meifeng.

During the meal, Lu Changfu ignored Yan Bin all the time, but from time to time he was sarcastic and made indirect accusations. Even a blind man could tell that he was scolding Yan Bin.

Lu Shaocai didn't care, Zhao Meifeng pretended not to see or hear, and several people treated Yan Bin coldly and ignored him.

Lu Jinling: "Mom, Changfu, what are you doing?"

Lu Changfu put down his chopsticks, stood up and went out, "I'm going to check on the pigs."

Yan Bin also left after finishing his meal.

Lu Jinling said to Lu Shaocai and Zhao Meifeng: "Dad, Mom, what are you two doing? It's our stepmother who is wrong, not Yan Bin who has let us down."

Zhao Meifeng: "Why are you so ungrateful? How has he not let us down? How much benefit have you taken from your grandfather? It should have all belonged to our family!"

Lu Jinling: "Even if he is not here, our stepmother has other nephews. It has nothing to do with him."

Zhao Meifeng: "Okay, take a nap."

Lu Shaocai lay down on the kang, "Oh, I'm so tired, my waist hurts, I need to take a nap."

The days are long in summer, and the members also need to take a nap at noon.

Lu Jinling did not take a nap, but went out to look for Yan Bin. She asked the kids on the street who were not taking a nap, and found out that he actually went to the educated youth center of the brigade.

Lu Jinling frowned, thinking that her parents were too stupid.

Yan Bin's identity could be regarded as an educated youth from the capital. He was educated, good-looking, and his family had a background. Who would not be eager to curry favor with him?

He went around the educated youth center, and those educated youth had to curry favor with him and make friends with him.

What's the point of you excluding him? Will he still lack friends?

Lu Jinling was 22 years old, and she was very anxious because she couldn't find a suitable partner.

Originally, her best destination was the grandson of her grandfather's old comrade-in-arms, or the second and third generations of the military compound. At the very least, she could find a young and promising officer in the capital.

Who knew that she would be exiled back to her hometown.

If someone here can help her, then marrying to Qizhou is the best option, or at least going to the city is fine.

Third Uncle works in Qizhou, and Third Aunt's second sister lives in the city. If they can take her there or help her find a partner, that's fine.

But they don't have the heart to do it.

Parents always blame step-grandmother, telling her that Third Uncle and Third Aunt are selfish.

Without those options, going to the county is fine. As long as someone can help her talk and introduce someone to her for a blind date, she thinks she can still succeed with her looks.

What was infuriating was that her third uncle didn't help her, and her grandfather didn't help her this time when he came back. And if she and her mother were to find a partner on their own, the snobbish people in the county wouldn't even want to date someone once they heard that she had a rural hukou. They didn't want a man from the countryside who had good health and a job, even if the man from the countryside was handsome, it wouldn't work, because handsomeness wouldn't be enough to make a living or work.

Anyone in the city who wanted a partner from the countryside basically had flaws, either a little stupid or really ugly, or they were a burden to their families and had patients who were bedridden all year round.

She and Zhao Meifeng had been busy for a few years but hadn't found a decent partner from the city.

She gave up on Zhao Meifeng.

What made her even more angry was that Wu Xuan, who was married for the second time, and Wang Shouke, who was married for the first time, preferred Lin Shu, who was "widowed" and raised a child, to a virgin like her.

It was really... God damn blind.

As for these peasants in the countryside, she looked down on none of them. It was the same reason why people in the city didn't want country men. No matter how handsome or good a country man was, if he didn't have a city hukou, didn't get paid, and didn't eat commodity food, she would look down on him.

Yan Bin was an opportunity for her!

If she and Yan Bin got together and let Yan Bin marry her, wouldn't Yan Bin have to take her with him when he returned to the city next year?

She was 21 years old, three years older than Yan Bin. A woman who was three years older than him could hold a golden brick, so it was a perfect match.

After figuring this out, she went to the educated youth point to find Yan Bin.

His parents and older brother all excluded Yan Bin, but she showed kindness to Yan Bin, gave him warmth and cared about him. In addition to the affection they had in their childhood, Yan Bin would definitely be grateful that she liked her.

Before returning to the countryside, she was already in her teens, and Yan Bin was less than ten years old at that time, and she had played with him.

Of course, at that time, she only had eyes for those handsome and flamboyant boys in the compound, and naturally looked down on a child like Yan Bin.

Times have changed, and now that Yan Bin has grown up, she can... see him.

Lu Jinling had a good idea, and others were certainly not stupid.

Yan Bin became the focus as soon as he arrived at the educated youth point, and both men and women talked and laughed with him and had a good relationship with him.

Most of the educated youth sent to the countryside by ordinary brigades like this were children of ordinary workers in nearby cities. Naturally, there were no children from government agencies or military compounds with good family backgrounds.

It was impossible for those children from such compounds to go to the countryside in unfamiliar rural areas. They either stayed in the suburbs or registered at their relatives' homes. Most of them still lived in the city.

After two years of working experience, their families would basically get them into factories, government agencies, military units, and other units.

So Yan Bin, who came from the capital, and his uncle who lived in a military compound, could return to Beijing to serve in the army or enter a factory next year, which naturally made them very jealous.

Of course, there were also those smart female educated youth who had the same idea as Lu Jinling.

A few days later, Lu Shaotang returned home and brought some gifts to Lin Shu, the most eye-catching of which was a big bag of wool yarn.

Lin Shu was surprised: "Did you go to the wool factory?"

Lu Shaotang liked to see her surprised and happy expression, and felt that a little bit of things could bring him more happiness.

He stretched out his hand to hook her into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her rosy lips, and explained after a while: "Chen Yanming went on a business trip to Inner Mongolia, and brought it to you specially."

Lin Shu licked her lips, "Yanming is really a thoughtful person."

Lu Shaotang: "...I call him Chen Yanming, and you call him Yanming? Don't you think you are too close to him?"

Lin Shu: "What's wrong?"

In the original plot, you have never been with your son and daughter, but he has been with them for more than 20 years, and he is also very good to them.

Lu Shaotang looked down at her, "Very good."

Lin Shu smiled, put one hand on his shoulder, tiptoed to kiss him, and then he held her waist to deepen the kiss.

Lu Shaotang heard rustling sounds from the door frame, and let go of Lin Shu calmly, turned around and went out, and sure enough, he saw Tiantian, Panpan, Hou Wei and Xu Xiaoyou, the four children, poking their heads to look inside.

He picked up Panpan and Hou Wei and led them out.

Lin Shu packed up the gifts that Lu Shaotang brought back, and with a few loops of yarn hanging from her arms, she went to find Granny Fang and Sister Lin to help them wind the yarn into balls.

Sister Lin prepared dinner and asked Hou Bo and Lu An to call Father Lu back to prepare for dinner.

When Father Lu saw Lu Shaotang, he naturally asked about Uncle Lu first, "Everything went well on the way?"

Lu Shaotang: "Yes, they took the evening train."

Father Lu asked curiously: "Isn't it in the afternoon? Why was it changed to the evening?"

Lu Shaotang did not hide it, "Changshou ran away when he was about to get on the train. He thought he wouldn't have to go if he hid. Although Uncle was angry, he still changed the time for him and took him away."

Father Lu: "This kid, what's wrong with him following his grandfather?"

Fang Dihua: "Then he definitely didn't follow me. "Dad and mom are good. Even if they have no future

, they still love him sincerely." Dad Lu: "His grandfather also loves him sincerely. He really hopes that he will have a future and wants to train him well. In the past, the eldest brother was busy and had no time. Now that he is retired, he has time to teach the children. Changshou will definitely not be wronged when he passes away."

He meant that in the past, Uncle Lu was busy and had no time to take care of the children, so Yan Ping might be narrow-minded or something. Now that Uncle Lu is free, Yan Ping is still busy at work. Lu Changshou spends most of his time with Uncle Lu, so naturally he will not be bullied by Yan Ping's narrow-mindedness or anything.

Because Lu Shaotang came back, he went to sleep with Sister Lin at night after the children had found the cicadas and monkeys.

Hou Jianwen is very busy now. He leads the technical team to work outside in the commune and the brigade all day long. He only comes back to stay for two days every ten days or half a month, which is about the same as Lu Shaotang.

Lin Shu also returns to her room earlier than usual at night. Now there is a light and the women can chat and work together, and she can dawdle until ten o'clock. When Lu Shaotang came back, she went back to the room at nine o'clock.

After a while, Lu Shaotang came in from outside. He had just taken a shower, his hair was half wet, and his strong upper body was naked, with broad shoulders and narrow waist, clear muscles, strong and beautiful.

Lin Shu was pressing the mosquito net, and she couldn't take her eyes off him. How could this man look better every time than the last time?

Did he practice on purpose?

His muscles are really beautiful, and he looks very sensible and well-behaved. He definitely doesn't have the kind of unsmooth muscles caused by muscle compensation for some people.

Lu Shaotang was very satisfied with his wife's eyes. He stretched out his long arm to help her put the mosquito net in place, and then slapped it with a palm-leaf fan.

"Do you want to light mosquito coils?"

Lin Shu: "It's useless to light mosquito coils without closing the door, but we have mosquito coils at home, so there are fewer mosquitoes."

Lu Shaotang: "Then I'll close the doors and windows?"

Lin Shu: "Is it hot?"

It was already past the summer solstice, there were a lot of mosquitoes, and the temperature at night was quite hot.

Lu Shaotang went to push open a sash on the back window, and the air convection between the front and rear windows would be much cooler, and then he closed the door.

Now no one dared to eavesdrop on his back window.

Lin Shu and the children planted a fence behind the house, about one meter away from the wall, flush with the back wall of the newly built house on the west side.

The innermost part of the fence is made of thorns, followed by fences like hibiscus, with hemp mixed in between.

Both hibiscus and hemp have medicinal value, and hemp also has economic value.

This can be considered killing two birds with one stone, as it can prevent people from eavesdropping near the back window, and it can also grow some crops.

Of course, the outside of the back wall is wide and does not encroach on the road. If the road itself is narrow, this would not be possible.

Anyway, after planting this green fence, Song Chunfang and Wang Lijuan felt the most guilty.

In order to save electricity, Lin Shu turned off the lights, and the couple lay on the pillow and talked in the moonlight outside the window.

The bright moon rose from the east, shining through the window lattice and falling on her face, reflecting her fair cheeks, and her smart eyes were even more watery.

Lu Shaotang began to answer the question absent-mindedly.

Lin Shu: "Did your step-aunt say anything to you on the way?"

Lu Shaotang's voice was hoarse, and his fingertips gently stroked her arm, "No."

Lin Shu didn't believe it: "No?"

Lu Shaotang: "She had a headache, and she wasn't feeling well."

Lin Shu: "Ha~"

Lu Shaotang kissed her intensively, and he was no longer in the mood to talk to her about outsiders. He didn't understand why she spent her precious time talking about her step-aunt.

That day, Lu Shaotang drove to pick up Uncle Lu and several others to go back to Qizhou.

On the way, Uncle Lu was reluctant to leave, but he obviously felt that his step-aunt was in a bad mood, even... it could be said to be terrible, because she looked at him with unkind and prickly eyes, and her face was a little gloomy.

However, Lu Shaotang has always been a meticulous observer with sharp insight, but he never makes unnecessary analyses unless the mission requires it.

Such unnecessary analysis would waste his mind, dilute his concentration, and hurt his sensitivity. Unless he was analyzing his wife's preferences or emotions, he was in no mood to analyze irrelevant people.

In addition, he met Yan Xin's slightly red and swollen eyes that were about to shed tears through the rearview mirror several times, and he knew without thinking that there was unpleasantness in his hometown.

That was the eldest wife's family affair, and he didn't care too much.

When they got off the bus to rest, Stepmother spoke to him earnestly, "Shaotang, I watched you grow up, and I have the same expectations for you as for Shaoyu. I hope your career will flourish and your life will be happy."

Lu Shaotang knew that she had something to say, and sure enough, Stepmother continued, "Since you married a country girl at the behest of your parents, you still have to spend more time to guide her. Even if she doesn't help you, she won't be a hindrance, right? Otherwise... hey."

The worried look on her face for Lu Shaotang was not fake at all.

Lu Shaotang could say anything else, but he couldn't stand people saying bad things about his parents and wife.

Seeing his cold attitude, not only did he not appreciate her wholehearted efforts for him, but he looked like he didn't want to continue, Yan Ping felt very uncomfortable.

She couldn't help but harden her tone, "Shaotang, it's not that I'm talking about your daughter-in-law's shortcomings behind her back, but she is really ignorant, you have to teach her."

Her eyes were aggressive, waiting for Lu Shaotang to ask her what Lin Shu was ignorant about, so that she could take the opportunity to tell the truth and give her a good lecture.

As a result, Lu Shaotang refused to communicate with her on the spot, leaving a sentence, "Aunt, based on my understanding of Lin Shu, she understands the ways of the world better than me, and I support her in everything she does. If you think she is ignorant, it may be that you don't understand her intentions?"

After that, he stopped communicating with Yan Ping.

This made Yan Ping angry, and she pretended to chat with Uncle Lu on the way, and took the opportunity to ridicule Lu Shaotang, teasing him in a joking tone, "Shaotang is now enjoying the benefits of a wife, children and a warm bed, but he has to listen to his wife. Shaotang, you have to control yourself, don't become a wife slave or a wife-governed man like some people."

Lu Shaotang naturally wouldn't confront her in front of Uncle Lu: Don't you just want Uncle Lu to be a wife slave or a wife-governed man?

Fortunately, Uncle Lu also knew that she had opinions about Lin Shu, and took the opportunity to show off, so he changed the subject.

At noon, Lu Shaotang ordered food for them at the state-owned hotel, but did not eat with them. He didn't want to listen to Yan Ping's complaints, so he went to pick them up when they were about to leave.

What he didn't know was that during lunch, Yan Ping complained to Uncle Lu again, "Old Lu, what's going on? Lin Shu is so ignorant. She's deliberately embarrassing Yan Xin and me. She doesn't respect us, and she doesn't respect you as her uncle. For the sake of Shao Tang and Second Uncle, she shouldn't be like this, right?"

Uncle Lu didn't say that Lin Shu was wrong. He still said, "It's understandable that she feels uncomfortable."

If someone doesn't say it's okay generously, then she definitely cares.

Yan Ping: "Hey, Shao Tang is also... more and more, how should I put it, in his heart and eyes, he only has his wife, not you, his uncle."

Uncle Lu was a little impatient, "You are biased, Shao Tang has always respected me, he is so busy at work, but he still personally picked us up and accompanied us, how can you still not be satisfied?"

Yan Ping was stunned when she saw his impatience, and felt more aggrieved, "I am not dissatisfied with Shao Tang's hospitality, I mean, Lin Shu did something wrong, shouldn't he teach her to save some face for her relatives? As soon as I said that, he Shouldn't you take the initiative to apologize to me on behalf of Lin Shu?"

Uncle Lu looked at her in confusion, "It was the boss's fault. Lin Shu was right. Why should Shao Tang apologize? Why do you keep picking on Shao Tang's wife? Yan Ping, why didn't I realize you were so unforgiving before?" Yan Ping was

angry and aggrieved. They have been married for twenty years now. Naturally, she is not as cautious as when she first got married. She dared not tell the truth or lose her temper with him. She would only compliment him and praise him. Now she has a temper and immediately turned her face away and ignored him.

She and Yan Xin took the two children out for a walk to help digest their food. While waiting for Lu Shaotang, Lu Changshou said pitifully to his grandfather, "Grandpa, my grandmother looked down on my third aunt, but she was a good person. She helped my mother get a job as a breeder, helped my eldest brother as a veterinarian, and hired a technical team for the brigade..."

He listed all the things that Lin Shu had done, such as being commended by the Public Security Bureau, being rated as advanced by the city and county, and helping the brigade to start a sideline business to make money. Finally, he wiped his tears and said, "There is no such thing as a Some people say that my third aunt is not good. Who would take in the mother-in-law's mother to take care of her? She would take care of her like her own family. Oh, my third aunt is also good to me. She often gives me cucumbers, tomatoes, cucumbers and other things through the wall, and also gives me snacks and candies..."

After hearing this, Uncle Lu recalled how Lin Shu took care of them in Qizhou and his hometown. She would take their taste into consideration when cooking, and would take the initiative to make sobering tea and digestion tea for them. She was very attentive.

Yan Ping said that Lin Shu was immature, but that was really... too picky and nitpicking.

If Yan Ping said that Lu Shaocai and Zhao Meifeng were not good, then Uncle Lu would not refute her, but would nod and add a few words. If she grabbed Lin Shu and said that they were not good, Uncle Lu would really disagree.

So when Lu Changshou was missing when they were about to get on the train in the afternoon, Yan Ping was furious, "Old Lu! This is just a bad kid, he is exactly the same as his father and elder brother, he will never change!"

Uncle Lu's face turned ugly on the spot, "Yan Ping, do you have a prejudice against the child? You have a prejudice against him, and you don't like anything he does?"

Yan Ping was also very angry. The train was about to leave, and Lu Changshou hid away. Old Lu didn't say anything to criticize Lu Changshou, but he was still here to blame her?

What kind of magic potion did his hometown give him?

So she still cares about him and praises him for hiding well?

She said directly that she didn't care about Lu Changshou, "The train is about to leave, let's go back first and let Shaotang take him home." Even

if she took him there, he would not be quiet.

However, Uncle Lu coldly asked her to take Yan Xin and the others back first, and he would stay to find Changshou and take him back to the capital himself.

Lu Shaotang offered another solution: "Uncle, you can go back first, I will find Changshou and ask someone to take him to the capital."

Yan Ping sneered, "What if he runs away again? Who has time to look for him all day? If he doesn't want to go, forget it, a forced melon is not sweet."

In the end, Uncle Lu insisted on staying and waiting for Lu Changshou.

After the train left, after a while, Lu Shaotang took Lu Changshou out.

When he saw Lu Changshou, Uncle Lu wanted to beat him, but he just stood there and didn't run away. He cried and trembled, looking extremely scared.

Lu Changshou was crying and choking, "Grandpa, grandma doesn't like me. I won't go and cause trouble for you..."

He was afraid because he felt that Yan Ping had given up on him.

Although he was also resisting and said he would not go, he did not do anything to further anger his grandfather, such as crying hysterically, rolling around, talking back, turning around and running away like Lu Shaocai and Lu Changfu. He stood there obediently while crying, looking like he accepted the punishment, which made Uncle Lu reluctant to beat him. Uncle Lu

thought: This child is not hopeless except that he is a little cowardly, greedy and lazy.

The moon was high in the sky, and Lin Shu was lazy and didn't want to move, so she let Lu Shaotang wipe her body.

She turned over and asked him softly, "We're making dumplings tomorrow. What kind of filling do you want?"

Lu Shaotang kissed her lips.
